W. A. MANDA, 
CHOICE FLORISTS’ FLOWER 
SEEDS. 
For Immediate Sowing. 
From my personal experience I know the great impor¬ 
tance of purity and high grade of stock. Therefore, I \ 
make it a special feature to handle only the very best 
strains. Purchasers may have every confidence in the 
quality of the seed I offer; and in ordering should order 
the best quality. 
Pansies, Show. 
Below you will find a list of the very finest of show 
pansies of incomparable size, beauty and luxuriance, 
especially my finest mixture. 
In this mixture I have spared no pains in securing 
the finest strains and mixing carefully, only using those 
which I knew would give the best results. For size, 
coloring and abundance of flowers, this strain has no 
equal. They do best in summer in a cool, moist situa¬ 
tion. Highly recommended for indoor culture in the 
winter.

Pansies, Bedding, 
These differ from the above in their flowers being 
smaller, but they are produced in greater profusion. 
They form bushy plants covered with bloom, and are 
better adapted for bedding, as the color of the flowers 
is mostly solid in this class, and they are therefore better 
able to stand the sun than the fancy forms of the show 
pansies.
